The kind of movie you watch as a child, get a confused boner from the gelfling girl, and then spend your entire 20s chasing autistic alt women with chopped bangs

(This is the first time I've seen this)

"Ya know why this is my favorite tree? Because it's knocked over and still growing."

It is a great shame that I had not acquainted myself with Sean Baker's films earlier than this moment. He's like an American Mike Leigh with a feverish chaos that could only be American. But not in the Michael Bay way. In the tradition of Mike Leigh, Sean Baker captures a soft and often tragic glimpse into the lives of working class Americans from all walks of shitty life where the outrageous can be uncomfortably relatable.
The children trek through an otherworldly stretch of shopping centers marked by storefronts, or rather monuments, to tourism and consumerism and tchotchkes. 'The Big Orange Dome'. An enormous wizard that probably sells shitty hot sauce. A shuttered family clinic. This is a very depressing reality painted in vibrant neons. Throughout the film it feels like they could step through the doors of some Narnnian wardrobe and be whisked away to a magical land "where forks are made of candy". Somewhere that's not a town outside of Orlando, FL. All the while the specter of Disney looms in the background, the notorious ears on the horizon line, the constant buzzing of helicopters overhead. Only the Brazilian tourists who have booked the wrong hotel mention it verbatim. For everyone else the magic seems to be far away.
Willem Dafoe as the disgruntled but empathetic caretaker of the castle is phenomenal of course. Every performance feels natural, every little thing hits you in the heart. I'm too tired to write more. Still haven't watched Anora.
